Writer Laura Dockrill's rhyming poem is a bold, brave shout-out for all those children who feel they don't fit in - offering reassurance that it's difference, not sameness, that makes us magnificent. Debut illustrator Ria Dastidar's collaged illustrations are a riot of colour on every single page.
 
For young readers age 5 and up.
